There still appear to be contradictory
opinions, through large extent Of country,
as to the guilt OF Cluverus. Their express
sion now, as far as concerns himself, is use
less, for he Is dead---'done to DEATH" by
the bloody criminal law. For ourselves,
VIC only remark that, In this book, he claims
his entire innocence. With such declara-
tion he perished on the scaifold. His story
is told In these pages clearly and calmly.
That he was unjustly condemned the rev.
erend gentleman who attended him a:miy
